TO DO LIST

  • If you copied a previous semesters Canvas page over to your current semester and your course had the DayONE Access Module and link already on it then this will copy over to your current semesters Canvas page.  You will find that you have both the copied Module and link from your previous page and the auto uploaded one from VitalSource, delete one.
  • If this is your first time your course is in the DayONE Access program, you will only have the DayONE Access module and link auto uploaded by VitalSource.
  • This new link will be found under Modules. The module is named: DayONE Access (eTextbook and Courseware) The DayONE Access link is where students will go to access the Pearson Courseware,  ebook and to opt out of the program. Please do not change the name of this Module
  •  Move the DayONE Access Module to the top of the Modules page so that students can easily find their course materials. (Video Instructions HERE)
  • Add a new tab to the DayONE Access module that includes the instructions below. (Name this tab something like: How to find your eText and MyLab or Instructions for locating course materials)
  • Add a new tab to the DayONE Access module named “Troubleshooting Tips”, these are attached to this email.
